@concretism: Thanks Chris. I think the beginning and end are both McCreeish. Yeah, the Roland would be really cool. But I think my days of hardware synths are coming to an end. I wish there were a vst version. I don't have an expensive string library like Hans Zimmer, so I worked on a wimpy string sound literally for TWO DAYS to get that dynamic biting attack. I used Alloy's transient shaper and dynamic expansion to increase the attack, and boosted the "scratchy" frequencies :)
